The film, earlier titled "Meera", will be a part of the Akshay Kumar-starrer "Baby" franchise.
"It is now called 'Naam Shabana'. It is a part of the 'Baby' franchise. You will see me doing a lot of action. I've started workshops. It has been close to three weeks now," Taapsee said in an interview here.
"Baby" also starred the 29-year-old actress. "Naam Shabana" is titled after the undercover name of Taapsee's character in "Baby", Shabana Kaif.
"I'll keep on doing workshops for the film till the time I start doing action sequences. I start shooting for it right after 'Pink'," Taapsee said.
Taapsee is currently awaiting the release of "Pink", also starring megastar Amitabh Bachchan.
The drama-thriler is directed by Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury and produced by Rashmi Sharma and Shoojit Sircar. It is scheduled to release on September 16.
